In 54/64 subjects with nosocomial diarrhea, fecal calprotectin levels correlated with the results of stool samples tested for Clostridium difficile toxin gene by PCR. Fecal calprotectin levels can be used as an adjunctive measure to PCR to support the diagnosis of C. difficile infection.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE The presence of a certain degree of inflammation in the gut wall is now accepted in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Fecal calprotectin is considered to be a reliable test for detecting intestinal inflammation. Our aim was to assess the presence of inflammation in postinfectious IBS (PI-IBS), compared with non-postinfectious IBS (NPI-IBS). A secondary objective was to deter...

62 Use of Lactobacillus GG for Treatment of Allergic Colitis in Children Cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) is a relatively common gastrointestinal disease in infants and is associated with rectal bleeding and diarrhea. CMPA involves intestinal inflammation, and fecal calprotectin, a marker of intestinal inflammation, may be helpful in following the disease course of CMPA. The authors of this st...

BACKGROUND/AIMS The diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is based on a polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) exceeding 250/μL in ascitic fluid. The aim of the study was to evaluate serum procalcitonin and ascitic fluid calprotectin as accurate diagnostic markers for detecting SBP. METHODS Seventy-nine patients with cirrhotic ascites were included. They were divided into a SBP gr...

Background To investigate the association between 18F-FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose) PET (positron emission tomography)/MRE (magnetic resonance enterography) metrics with the inflammatory biomarkers fecal calprotectin and C-reactive protein (CRP) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Methods This prospective pilot study was institutional review board (IRB) approved with informed consent obtained. ...

The diagnosis of gastrointestinal graft versus host disease (GI-GVHD) is based on clinical symptoms and histological findings. In clinical practice, it is often difficult to decide whether abdominal symptoms in an allogeneic transplant recipient are caused by GVHD or other disorders. Endoscopic biopsies are helpful in establishing the diagnosis, but endoscopy is not always possible to perform d...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Capsule endoscopy is an extended tool for the diagnosis of small bowel Crohn's disease. However, factors associated with positive findings of this technique have not been well established. Our aim is to asses which factors are associated with a better diagnostic yield of capsule endoscopy in suspected small bowel Crohn's disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a retrospectiv...

OBJECTIVE Serial monitoring data for faecal calprotectin and lactoferrin during Crohn's disease (CD) therapy are scarce. The aim of this research was to study the behaviour of faecal biomarkers during CD therapy. MATERIAL AND METHODS Adult CD patients (n = 19) needing therapy enhancement were prospectively recruited. The simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD) was administered be...

Diagnosis of gastrointestinal GVHD (GI-GVHD) is based on clinical symptoms and histologic findings. No biomarkers predicting responses to treatment are routinely available even though 30% to 50% of patients will not respond to corticosteroids. In this study, we aimed to evaluate fecal calprotectin, α-1-antitrypsin (α(1)-AT), and elastase at the time of first symptoms as diagnostic and prognosti...

Background and Aim. In the inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), many symptoms are similar to the functional disorder irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). A challenge is thus to distinguish symptoms of IBD from IBS. The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of calprotectin in IBS-positive IBD patients in remission. Methods. Remission was defined as a simple clinical colitis activity index (S...
